This section of Luke’s Gospel is brutal and extreme in the way it paints Jesus’ grim attitude to his contemporaries and the choices they make about following or abandoning him. What he is saying is that in the grimness of the times, Jesus wants his followers to make a choice for him even in the darkness and in that choice seek the light of Christ even as it appears to be a choice in the midst of darkness.
